Happy to see my ol' battalions have survived the rigors of reorganization. Exactly the same as I left them. Same weapons, same home stations. Cool.

Cannons are cool.

Excalibur In Iraq

High angle excalibur-precision fires. Just what the doctor ordered for 24/7, all-weather fires on urban/defilade targets. The above photo was a Marine M777A2 firing excalibur from Camp Fallujah.

I'm so happy. We've got some verrrry nice toys playing soon at theatres of war near you.
